A small field that lacks a pacemaker.
WELCOME ADVICE (5) resumed in fine fashion with a strong Doomben victory before just missing the frame at the Gold Coast last time out. Looks the runner in this line-up with the most upside and should be right there when the whips are cracking. ARTISTIC ENDEAVOUR (1) returned to the winners' stall at the Gold Coast at the latest outing and will have derived a stack of confidence from that win. Can go back-to-back without surprising. WEEKEND SPIRIT (3) is one from one over this course and distance and rarely puts in a bad one. A must for the multiples. SILVER SMASH (7) is a two-time winner here who will be ready to peak now fourth run back from the break. In the mix. WANTED HILLBILLY (2) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 5,1,3,7.
